The so-called SJWs – “Social Justice Warriors” – have zero interest in “justice.” They seek to shut down any opinion or point of view that does not match theirs. We need to start calling them by the more accurate “LFs” – Leftist Fascists. Tammy’s book, The New Thought Police, written in 2001, is more relevant than ever, seventeen years later. Via WSJ. Betty Bonifassi has spent 18 years researching, reworking and performing slave songs. In “SLĀV,” the hit new play on the same topic, she is the lead singer—or was. The Montreal International Jazz Festival canceled “SLĀV” on Wednesday: “We would like to apologize to those who were hurt.” Why the pain? Because Ms. Bonifassi and director Robert Lepage are...

The little SJW’s were upset and frightened by a beach ball? Maybe a few weeks in Marine Boot Camp would straighten them out. Via Campus Reform. A video obtained by Campus Reform shows conservative activists at Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville being told by police officers that their “free-speech ball” was “scaring” students. The activists, a collective of First Amendment advocates from Turning Point USA, Young Americans for Liberty, and the Leadership Institute, employed a popular tactic of rolling a so-called “free-speech ball” around campus, allowing interested students to scribe messages of their choice on the object. However, they were eventually stopped by campus police, who informed them that the school had received multiple complaints about the free-speech ball and even...

No word, though, if these same Democrats oppose the free speech rights of Antifa thugs or BLM demonstrators calling for cop killings. Via Breitbart. A new poll conducted by the University of California Berkeley reveals that a majority of California Democrats oppose the First Amendment right of freedom of speech and assembly, at least as it applies to extreme right-wing groups. A plurality (46%) of all Californians feels the same way…. Some 50 percent of California Republicans, meanwhile, believe the right to demonstrate should not be restricted, compared with 39 percent of Democrats…. The poll’s results reportedly surprised the pollster who conducted it. “I would have thought the liberals would be defending the right to demonstrate in general,” Mark DiCamillo...

Because…Free Speech! Or something. Via Washington Examiner. Valerie Plame Wilson is fundraising to buy a controlling share of Twitter so that she can ban President Trump from the social media platform…. But Wilson’s progress has been slow: She has raised almost $3,000 since the page was set up on Aug. 16, well short of her $1 billion target…. And yes, people on Twitter weighed in: There is a 'block' feature you know, but if you really feel threatened by President #Trump, just pull the covers over your head until 2024. — Burt Zerker (@BurtZerker) August 23, 2017 There's a word for ppl that want to shut down speech they don't agree with. Any guesses? Fascist. — Tracy (@ocdred) August 22,...

Liberals should applaud this proposed bill, since their dream is become more like the EU, where “social harmony” is more important than free expression. Via Breitbart. A new bill being considered by the California State Senate would punish people who “willfully and repeatedly” refuse “to use a transgender resident’s preferred name or pronouns” in a public health, retirement or housing institution. The bill, SB 219, was proposed by State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-San Francisco). It includes several other provisions that require a health facility, for example, to honor the gender identity of a patient, meaning that the patient must be admitted to a room that comports with his or her chosen gender; allowed to use whatever bathroom he or she...

This happened in New Jersey, not in Communist China. Via NY Post. ….Parents at a New Jersey high school are outraged that their kids’ yearbook photos were Photoshopped to remove pro-Trump slogans on their clothing. One student at Wall HS had the “TRUMP Make America Great Again” motto deleted from his T-shirt, while a junior classmate had his fleece “Trump” vest sanitized. A third student, the freshman class president, was stunned to see that her selected quote — a Trump utterance — never made it to print. “I want all the yearbooks reissued. Everybody gets a brand-new yearbook,” fumed Joseph Berardo, whose 17-year-old son, Grant, donned the Trump T-shirt on picture day last fall. “And I want a letter from...

Heroes Taliesin Myrddin Namkai Meche, Rick Best (both killed) and Micah David-Cole Fletcher. An excellent editorial from USA Today. Click through and read the whole thing. Heroism is instinctive, an action taken in a split second of crisis to save a life, defend deeply held values, or simply to stand up for what’s right. Such heroism was on display last week in Portland, Ore., when the loud, ugly voice of hate drew three men to intervene as Jeremy Joseph Christian, 35, ranted and verbally abused two teenage girls, one of them wearing a Muslim head scarf. The three men tried to calm the situation on the light-rail commuter train while Christian spewed his bile about blacks and Muslims. Tragically, Christian...

The EU commission feels it is inflammatory to mention that the perpetrators of a terrorist attack may be Muslims. No word yet, if it is also inflammatory to scream Allahu Akbar while slaughtering innocent people because they do not share your religious views. Via Express. A report from the European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) found there was an increase in hate speech and racist violence in the UK from 2009 to March 2016. Blaming the press, ECRI Chair Christian Ahlund, said: “It is no coincidence that racist violence is on the rise in the UK at the same time as we see worrying examples of intolerance and hate speech in the newspapers, online and even among politicians.” The...

Muzzling a potentially suicidal student from sharing thoughts with a peer, who would in all likelihood encourage the student to seek help? This is inexplicably stupid. And dangerous. Via Campus Reform. Northern Michigan University does not allow students to discuss “suicidal or self-destructive thoughts or actions” with their peers, threatening disciplinary action if they do. According to New York Magazine, NMU has been sending out roughly 25-30 letters per semester to students contemplating suicide or self-harm, informing that that “you will face disciplinary action” for broaching the subject of personal difficulties with classmates. “It is important that you refrain from discussing [self-destructive thoughts] with other students and use the appropriate resources listed below,” Mary Brundage, the associate dean of students,...

An African-American employee of a federal agency complained about being harassed by a co-worker wearing a cap with a Gadsden flag depicted on it. The complainant found the cap racially offensive citing that Christopher Gadsden was a slave owner. The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is investigating the matter. The flag is connected with the American Revolution. Benjamin Franklin suggested the coiled rattlesnake to be the symbol for the new country. Benjamin Franklin on the Rattlesnake as a Symbol of America I recollected that her eye excelled in brightness, that of any other animal, and that she has no eye-lids. She may therefore be esteemed an emblem of vigilance. She never begins an attack, nor, when once engaged, ever surrenders: She...

But viciously anti-Israel accounts that promote terrorist attacks against Jews “follow Facebook Community Standards” and are allowed on FB? Got it. And apparently, it is also within FB’s “standards” to have a picture of a police officer’s throat being slit. Via Breitbart. Admins of the lighthearted political page “Liberty Memes” have been suspended from Facebook and had images mocking Hillary Clinton deleted from their page. The Facebook page, boasting over 100K likes, has had multiple images removed as they apparently don’t “follow the Facebook Community Standards”. One of the most recent images removed was one that poked fun at Hillary Clinton and the recent recommendation by the FBI not to press charges following Clinton’s email scandal. The image received approximately...

Maureen Dowd just referred to Obama as “Barry,” so the Leftists/Progs just had to start a Twitter hashtag war, #PresidentObamaNotBarry. Not sure why Obamabots are so upset when he’s called “Barry.” I can think of a lot worse names to call him. HT Weasel Zippers. Via NYT: The Clinton Contamination ….It’s quaint, looking back at her appointment as secretary of state, how Obama tried to get Hillary without the shadiness. (Which is what we all want, of course.) The president and his aides attempted to keep a rein on Clinton’s State Department — refusing to let her bring in her hit man, Sidney Blumenthal. But in the end, Hillary’s goo got on Obama anyhow. On Tuesday, after Comey managed to...

Let’s all go visit the campus of North Carolina U. to ask everyone we meet: “Are you gonna wear those shoes I love when you play a round of golf with your boyfriend/girlfriend on your Christmas vacation?” Via Daily Caller. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill issued a guide this week which instructs students that Christmas vacations and telling a woman “I love your shoes!” are “microagressions.” The taxpayer-funded guide — entitled “Career corner: Understanding microaggressions” — also identifies golf outings and the words “boyfriend” and “girlfriend” as microagressions. The UNC Chapel Hill guide, published on Thursday, covers a wide range of menacing microaggressions — which are everyday words that radical leftists have decided to be angry or...

Hey Super Pac Hillary Attack Dogs: Bring. It. On. Via Fox News. Beware of saying anything bad about Hillary Clinton online – you may end up confronted by a multimillion-dollar super PAC working to shut you down on social media. The Los Angeles Times reports that Correct the Record – run by Clinton ally David Brock – is spending a million dollars to challenge social media users tweeting and posting negative things about their candidate. The plan is being put in place in part to address the enthusiasm gap between Clinton supporters and those backing rival Bernie Sanders – known for their ability to dominate the social media space – as well as the passionate supporters of presumptive Republican nominee...

Thanks to the Liberal Fascists, Tammy will have plenty of material for her sequel to The New Thought Police. Via Daily Mail: Mike Ditka will be replaced as a panelist on ESPN’s Sunday NFL Countdown, it has been revealed. The announcement came less than a week after Ditka, both a former player and coach for the Chicago Bears, revealed he believed Barack Obama was the worst president ‘we’ve ever had’. Ditka, who has been a main panelist for the ESPN show since 2006, said Obama was a ‘fine man’ but not a leader when he went on WABC’S The Bernie & Sid Show last Thursday. ‘He would be great to play golf with,’ Ditka continued. ‘He’s not a leader.
